To determine if your late application has been accepted by the West Lothian Licensing Board, you should be aware of the following process. If your late application is deemed to meet the criteria for emergency or unforeseen events, it will be considered; otherwise, it will be returned with an explanation.
Here's a quick rundown of what happens:
| Step | Process |
|---|---|
| 1. Submission | Late applications must be accompanied by a completed 'Emergency and Unforeseen Events' form detailing the emergency. |
| 2. Review | The Board will consider if your application qualifies under the emergency/unforeseen categories. |
| 3. Decision | If accepted, you'll be notified, but there’s no guarantee it will be determined before the event. If rejected, you'll receive an explanation. |
| 4. Payment | Do not pay any fees until instructed; fees for rejected applications are not refundable. |
If you have further questions or wish to apply, make sure to check the council's website for any specific forms or additional requirements.
